About the work
About the Work
Our documentary tells the story of one of Britain's most respected studio potters, Walter Keeler. Set against the backdrop of his house and studio on the borderlands between England and Wales, Keeler tells us his about his life as a potter and how, through his interest in early industrial British pottery, his work has been rooted in European and especially British traditions.
He demonstrates some of his remarkable working practices and talks of how his functional pots were transformed by drawing on his sculptural instinct to alter and assemble thrown components. While still functional, his work will often challenge and amuse the user.
